1 cup soymilk 1/3 cup canola or melted coconut oil ¾ cup sugar 2 tsp vanilla extract ¼ tsp almond extract 1/3 cup dutch process or dark cocoa powder |

Directions |

Preheat oven to 350ºF and line muffin tray(s) with cupcake liners.
In a large mixing bowl combine soy milk, oil, sugar, and extracts. Mix with an electric mixer on medium speed until sugar has dissolved.
In a medium bowl combine dry ingredients. Add dry ingredients to wet mixture in batches and mix for at least 2 minutes, until mixture is well combined. You can’t really over mix this since there is no gluten. Fold in chocolate chips.
Fill cupcake liners ¾ full. These won’t rise much since there’s no gluten.
Bake for 18-23 minutes until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean. Transfer to a cooling rack and let cool completely before topping with chocolate ganache (recipe below).
